Why we do what we do
For Bee Resonance Project, honey bees and wild pollinators connect us with nature. Their declining health and numbers are alarming and demonstrate the immediate need to stand, side by side, with the natural world that sustains us all. We are working for climate justice, and operate with social and environmental responsibility.
We acknowledge the systematic oppression of people of color still going on today particularly in the agriculture industry, and are working to support safe spaces for BIPOC to train as beekeepers, and establish apiaries.
